David Taylor - The Birds And The Trees

Описание

Once in a land that had only one tree a bird came and sat and sang on my knee. And in a place that had only one bird I sat under a tree that said that he'd heard of a place where the branches were full of birds that sing at the start of the dawn. Once in a land that had only one bird a tree came to tell me of what he had heard. That in a place where there's only one tree the birds will come and sing on your knee. And the point of the story, I'm sure you must see only one bird will tell all of trees about that place where they sit and sing on your knee. But in a place where there are acres of trees it is rare to find one that comes to tell me of what he had most definitely heard about that land that has only one bird. But if you sit at the start of the dawn in the land with one bird and with trees it is full you'll wait a very long time, you will see before it sits and sings on your knee.
